Walking is good exercise, so they say, and the now 17 strong group of Littlemoor Strollers who meet every Friday at 10.30 outside the Littlemoor hardware shop, would agree heartily.

Not only do they get the exercise they have the opportunity to meet new friends and have a leisurely chat as they wander the lesser known footpaths and bye-ways of this lovely area.

It’s also, the strollers say, a perfect way to learn more about Littlemoor.

And it seems there are so many diverse track ways and footpaths in the area that the group can’t remember doing the same route twice this year.

Last week saw them heading along Littlemoor Road to Chalbury corner where they turned right and picked up the footpath to Jordan Temple.

From there they headed for Bowleaze Coveway to the Oasis Café (where they often stop for refreshments) and then towards town via the sea wall to the bowling green where they stopped at the café above the beach huts for tea, coffee and cakes.

Then some hopped on a bus to return home while others remained in town to do some shopping.

If this sounds like the sort of thing you’d like to try on a Friday morning, then contact the group leader, Ray Rolfe on 01305 814552.

All newcomers are made to feel very welcome so why not give it a go, make an early New Year’s resolution to take more gentle exercise now!
